1.Betterman/save it for later
2.Corduroy
3.either small town or Daughter with a tag like its ok
4.Alive

    I did think about it briefly last night but they would never be asked or never do it so why speculate?

    You would hate to see, what I am assuming is your favorite band, play the SuperBowl? Why?

    I would be pumped if they did the superbowl. I love watching the halftime show regardless of who is playing. If it was PJ it would be even better.

    If they are still around in 10 years or so, they will definitely be asked to do it (if they haven't been asked already)

    They'd be pressured to play hits, so:

    My husband and I were talking about this last night! I said "No Way! " Just another way for a great band to be turned into corporate sell-outs.

    When I first started listening to PJ they were mainstream and appealed to the masses. Now they appeal to a certain crowd, those that actually have musical taste, and those who want to listen to a band that has matured and grown musically. It feels good to appreciate a band that puts their heart a soul into what they believe is musical progression and not what the music industry wants to sell.

    Cover or no, they couldn't not play Baba O'Riley in front of a huge crowd like that.

    (I know they're more likely to play Alive, Betterman, E Flow, and such, but it's not like they'll ever actually play the Super Bowl halftime show.)

    Petty didn't get to do 4 songs... He got 12 minutes and managed to fit 4 songs in...

    So i'm thinking PJ might squeeze in 2 good ones...

    Also, they (the NFL) told Tom no songs with overt drug use references... Not that PJ has many, if any, of these... (I'm blanking)

    Exactly.

    When U2 played they only got though Beautiful Day and MLK/Where the Streets Have No Name.

    I think PJ would play Corduroy, Given To Fly (minus the weed reference and Fuckers) and Alive. That would be close to 12 minutes.
